Two-dimensional growth of SrTiO3 thin films on (001) MgO substrates using pulsed laser deposition and reflection high energy electron diffraction
Two-dimensional epitaxial growth of SrTiO3 is achieved on MgO, a substrate presenting a large lattice mismatch of 7.9%. In situ reflection high energy electron diffraction (RHEED) is used to monitor a...

We model and experimentally validate a nonlinear energy harvester capable of bidirectional hysteresis. In particular, both hardening and softening response within the quadratic potential field of a power generating piezoelectric beam (with a permanent magnet end mass) is invoked by tuning nonlinear magnetic interactions. Not only is this technique shown to increase the bandwidth of the device but experimental results additionally verify the capability to outperform linear resonance. Engaging this nonlinear phenomenon is ideally suited to efficiently harvest energy from ambient excitations with slowly varying frequencies. ©2009 American Institute of Physics
